We have a lot of cowbell topics the past period, but actually still not quite enough…
So to have more cowbell, download the “more cowbell” sample-pack and start tracking.
Rules:
-only Renoise internal effects,
-only the samplepack (no external recordings)
-You may process the samples in Renoise only (this includes saving seperately and importing as raw or bit-swapped, add freehand drawing etc.)
-Describe how you mocked up the samples.
-Kaneel should write a complete album if he attends.
7 days to compose, 3 days to vote
Composing week: Deadline is friday June 12th
Voting weekend: June 12th till June 14th.
That’s up to you…
A caribbean Cowbell ensemble or whether you just make up a Sine looped festival (or invert to 8 bit noise) → all fine.
It’s actually to do what the book does not teach you to do with it.
is it allowed to set loops into the samples to generate new sounds ?
i also split the samples into 8 separate sounds. maybe that`s not the way you mean
Yes you may do anything with the samples as you please… as long as the processing is done inside Renoise no external tools for processing allowed. → If you do proces:write down each step in the song-info how you reached the end-result (so it can be reproduced for checking).
well, i had only 6 hours for composing as i entered a bit too late
this means that this tune is unfinished.
hope someone like the result anyway. soundwise it could be much better, maybe i fix this later!
+1
Very smoothly mixed and a rich variation of different textures and showing surprising simple use of the cowbell samples to get other sounds (some use the internal instrument envelopes, you perform with pattern effects).
The only con is that the song size does not lasts 6 hours.
OTher entries:
Cheap thrills: I can imagine you enjoyed making this, what kind of energy drink sponsored you to get this realised in two hours? The sound of this tune reminds back to the days of Rockmonitor and Digieditor on the C64 (LoFi all the way)
Rythmic this piece is very great in the largest part of the song later on. You could have made the song-file smaller by removing unused instruments.
Garf:
Exotic piece with some mysterious elements, overal mixing sounds great. You didn’t go too much overboard when it comes to shaping the samples to other sounds.
starryzafara:
No sound stayed intact, very atmospheric and ofcourse short as you said… Would you care to explain how you modified some of the samples?
I have an idea that the “New sample ##” instruments were not entirely processed inside Renoise…
